She Sailed Away

Quart of rum
Say, ain't life grand.
Lying in a hammock with my head in my hands.
Clear blue sea, cloudproof sky.
Taking a pause, life sliding by.
Till friends come by with news.
They say it ain't good.
You've missed the boat again.
Yeah, we thought you would.
Cause that girl that you've been dabbling in just left town.
Looks like she's gone for good.

She sailed away.
She took up with a sailor.
She's gone they say,
Headed for the islands.
She's gone away.
I always thought I'd see her,

But she just sailed away.

Quart of rum
Say, ain't life grand.
Lying on the deck of a catamaran.
Took a beatin' out on the wire
Flying a hull with my head on fire.
I heard she compared my life
To a piece of driftin' wood.
Said if you think that's what life's about
Then you misunderstood.
This ain't no game, son, it's life.
You've got to be in it, boy, or it's no good.

REPEAT CHORUS
